Still unsure between Hostinger vs Hostgator? See what else Hostinger has to offer.
Faster load time means more conversions and lower bounce rates. To provide optimal performance for their clients, Hostgator offers unlimited storage and unmetered bandwidth in all their hosting plans.
We take a similar approach. Our Premium and Business shared hosting plans come with unlimited bandwidth and upwards of 100 GB in full SSD storage – more than enough to grow a personal or small business website.
What’s more, our tech stack is powered by LiteSpeed – the fastest web server in the industry. With HTTP/3 support and a self-healing infrastructure, your website will run at maximum speed.
Hostgator offers cPanel, the most popular web hosting control panel on the market. Known for its feature-richness and simplicity, it’s helped millions of users manage their hosting accounts.
At Hostinger, we aim to make website creation easier for everyone. That’s why we have developed hPanel, Hostinger’s custom control panel suitable for both beginners and advanced users. It comes in 17 languages and offers various one-click installers – from WordPress and PrestaShop to Joomla and Drupal.
The quicker you solve problems on your website, the better its user experience will be. Our global customer support team is online every day around the clock via email and live chat assistance. Our average response time is 50 seconds.
Our agents provide support in over 10 languages and are based in multiple time zones. If you’re hosting a website elsewhere, our team can migrate your site free of charge.
We also provide a comprehensive knowledge base and learning resources to help you run your website.
When it comes to security, both Hostinger and Hostgator offer ModSecurity, free SSL certificates, and free backups. With Hostgator, clients can get extra protection by purchasing third-party services, such as SiteLock and CodeGuard.
On the other hand, Hostinger offers top-tier protection by default. We implement server-level security enhancements, such as an in-house developed web application firewall, RAID 10, real-time malicious activity protection, global Honeypot, and DDoS mitigation.
Other security features include free unlimited SSL and automatic WordPress updates.
Our feature-rich web hosting services have helped millions build success online.
